I have never met an Englishman who was not crazed with in his zone of influence, but when I worked for ICI I met a lot of real nutty English women who were crazed everywhere.

I married a Pole with those lovely grey eyes with the tartar slant, not a better race of people, the Poles, my father-in-law warned me, you have to wear spurs to be married to a Slav.

Well I've got some Russian language skills so I'd be a bit more prepared for a Slavic lady than many, I'd hazard. Also some Hungarian skills; and their women are indeed quite...erm...spirited, I believe is the best word. ;)

Regards, Ivan

Also some Hungarian skills........

If you deside on a Pole or a Southern Slav, I would forget Hungarian. My dear exes grandfather refered to them as Asiatic swine, there seems to be some hard feelings.

I guess it's an early death for me, then. At age 41, after a number of relationships that misfired, I've concluded marriage isn't in the cards. I'm no longer looking.

If you leave the lid down you pee on the floor. If you leave the seat down she doesnt fall in.

[glock rocks]

You mean she made you read the manual? Real men would never resort to such a demeaning practice.

....If you know of some real men, send them to Los Angeles and I'll introduce them to my friends.

Real men do not go to California, live there anyway.

Heck, since my divorce, my alcohol consumption has all but gone down to zero.

My wife met her first husband at 41. She and I had both stopped looking.
